It links the major connector (the main \u201cbackbone\u201d of the denture) to other components like rests, clasps, and the denture base. In simple terms, it acts like a connector \u201cbridge\u201d that transfers support and stability across the prosthesis. It is most commonly discussed in prosthodontics and RPD design."}
